Andrew 30 Report post Posted May 22, 2007 You need those towbar bits. Cars without a towbar have the correct mounting points without the towbar (obviously). So either go get those. Or take to your towbar with a hacksaw and cut the tabs off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

will 169 Report post Posted May 22, 2007 You need to remove those square plates that mount the towbar. They have a long!! piece of angle bar that goes up the chassis rail and held in place by a bolt about 2/3 of the way up the rail towards the driver's side on the underside of the rail. Once those are removed the standard bumper mounts will work. Will Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
